DDR2 Frequencies Supported by the EP80579
Supported DDR2 frequencies are based on the SKU and the Tolapai operating
frequency. Table 47-2 lists the supported DDR2 frequencies. The supported frequencies
are defined as frequency blocks. The DDR2 interface is defined as a function of the
SKUs shown in Table 47-1, “Base Features of EP80579 SKUs”.

47.2.3
Strap Options (Platform-based Configuration)
The Tolapai provides an external pull-down strap pin (V_SEL) that allows the platform
to select IA-32 core frequency. The value of V_SEL determines the operating point
(frequency and voltage) of the IA-32 core in conjunction with the value of the Tolapai
output pin, BSEL.
BSEL is derived from the IA-32 core BSEL output and indicates the fixed FSB frequency.
The V_SEL pin is driven by the Tolapai to a default value corresponding to the SKU
shown in Table 47-1, “Base Features of EP80579 SKUs” on page 1730, but may be
strapped low by the platform to override the SKU value; this causes the IA-32 core to
operate at the lowest gear ratio (multiplier applied to the FSB frequency to obtain the
IA-32 core frequency) and voltage combination corresponding to the SKU’s FSB
frequency. Table 47-3 shows the Tolapai strap options:

Notes:

The BSEL output to the clock generator on the board assumes that ‘0’ indicates 400 MHz FSB and '1’
indicates 533 MHz FSB.
